Tuscaloosa Ala. June 2nd 1867 Mr. CW Buckley [[stamp]] The National Archives of the United States [[/stamp]] Dr. Sir In a late letter you sent to Mr. Arms you asked him if he could spare me to be sent to some other point. Mr. Arms and I have talked the matter over, and tho' I have a room full of scholars, I think my place could be filled by Miss Benton, the very efficient teacher you sent here. Now if you have any good point at which you desire to establish schools I will go on this condition: viz: that you increase my salary to the amount you allow Mr. Arms. If you still have no school at Claiborne perhaps that would be a good point. I would not teach plantation schools. Very Respectfully Jno. A. Hart.
